    Finally made myself put the binding on. This is my third quilt ever and the first I added binding to. I made it to fit a bunk bed. I may add more hand quilting along the edges.

    Now, that binding wasn't so bad was it?? :wink: This is a really pretty quilt Up North. I love the blues and oranges together. Your granddaughter is going to love it. :)

    I agree that the outside border could do with a bit of quilting. It looks to me like a large enough area to make some pretty design that will just finish it off perfectly! Well done. :D

    I love this quilt - Blue and Orange were my high school colors! I second the quilting in the outside border. Well done!
